Kasper Schmeiche Explain two reasons why he is leaving Celtic this summer…
Everything Celtic goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel said to the media after his side’s 0-0 draw with GNK Dinamo in the Champions League…
The clean sheet looks good, don’t you think?
I think it’s a good sign that you’re coming away from a European game and we’ve drawn and kept a clean sheet and we’re still slightly disappointed. But it was a tough game.
They played a very defensive game, man-to-man, which made it really difficult. A difficult pitch, all these things, but we’re still a little bit disappointed that we didn’t manage to create more.
All eyes now turn to Sunday. It’s just one big game after another, isn’t it? How much are you looking forward to the Final?
Yeah, I think in these types of games, it’s important for us as players to take the emotion out of the game, to play the game, not the occasion.
We need to play it with precision and make sure that we hit the standards that we’ve set and we keep being ambitious, we keep pushing forward.
Do you have experience of winning cup finals with the manager at Leicester? How is your recollection of that day?
It was a good day, a very good day. It was a very tight game as these things tend to be and we had a great day. Unfortunately, it was just as we were reopening after COVID-19, so we didn’t actually get to celebrate it with our fans.
But, yeah, we had a good day and then the problem was we were playing three days after against Chelsea again, so it wasn’t that much that we got to celebrate it. But it was a very positive experience.
You won’t have that problem this time, you’ll be able to celebrate with fans alright?
One thing at a time.
Is this the type of game that is why you join a club like Celtic?
To be honest, I think it’s every occasion. I think when you join a club like Celtic, the size of the club, everywhere you go, you even see [in Zagreb] how many fans that travel. That’s not normal. I’ve played in a lot of clubs and that’s not normal that you have that amount of support everywhere you go.
